Subpart Ja: Inert Coatings Assure Refinery Compliance

May 23 2014 sulfur analysis

Subpart Ja regulations for US refineries will cover almost all refinery flares by November 2015. Refiners are now upgrading and modifying flare systems to comply with the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS). The standard will impact several refinery units:

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units – after May 14, 2007
Fluid Coking Units – after May 14, 2007
Delayed Coking Units – after May 14, 2007
Fuel Gas Combustion Devices (except flares) – after May 14, 2007
Flares – after June 24, 2008
Sulfur Recovery Plants – after May 14, 2007

A recent paper by Spirit Environmental summarizes compliance standards and offers a concise overview of the standard. You can also read the complete regulation on the EPA website.
